Robert Johnson - Love in Vain
The Rolling Stones rendering of this oldie is entirely different. Keith wanted
to do this after having got hold of other RJ recordings which he hadn't heard
previously, but wanted to add something of the Stones to it. Personally, I think
this version stands on it own (IMHO).
It was recorded in G on 'Get you Ya-Ya's out in 12/8 measure. The chords are:
[intro]
| G | Em C | G G7 | D |
[verse]
| G | G | G7 | G7 |
| C | D7 | G D7 | Gsus4 G |
| D7 D/F# | Em C | G G7 | D |

additional lyrics:
When the train rolled up to the station, I looked her in the eye
When the train rolled up to the station, I looked her in the eye
Well, I was lonesome, I felt so lonesome
and I could not help but cry
All my love's in vain
When the train left the station with two lights on behind
When the train left the station with two lights on behind
Well the blue light was my blues
and the red light was my mind
All my love's in vain
Ohh ho ho ho Willie Mae
Ohh ho ho ho Willie Mae
Ohh ho ho ho Willie Mae
All my love's in vain

(xx): he's doing these "fills" throug out the whole song.
try to place these things for your own!

The above is a very easy way to play that Robert Johnson song.
For a more detailed transcription I would recommend:
Scott Ainslie's "Robert Johnson complete guitar transcription".
It's NO book for beginners!
BTW listen to Bob Brozman's version of that song!!!
He plays it with a bottleneck and offers a lot of real
great slide licks in that song. I prefer to play Bob's
version of this song.
I hope this tab's not too bad, and you folks can work with it.
have fun
markus
PS: Any corrections or comments welcome!
Any Johnny Winter, Rory Gallagher or Muddy Waters tab would be very welcome!
